HD Portable Satellite Kit £59.99 @ Aldi

Now that brexit has kicked in you may not want to take the chance and go abroad for your summer holiday. so it could be staycation maybe in a tent or a caravan so how about some tv well why not try the HD Portable Satellite Kit from aldi. and I forgot to say a 3 year warranty.

Not a bad price but sometimes the signal on these small dishes can be a bit hit and miss especially the further north you go. I did satellite on the cheap with my caravan. I had a spare sky mini dish and and old sky box. I bought a tripod for about £10.00, I think it's a speaker stand which folds up quite small. I can get the satellite rigged up in a few minutes using a sat finder.

Saying that though if I hadn't already got the spares the kit would come in useful so have some heat.

Dish is a bit on the small side but I guess that's the point. You should be good for 28E, 19E and 13E in the UK and Europe with possible issues at some of the limits of reception for the various sats or in very bad weather. HD is no different to SD from a reception point of view assuming the receiver is HD as stated.

You'd get free to view channels including BBC HD, ITV HD, CH4 HD and CH5 HD channels plus some other free to view hd channels but no Sky subscription channels of course. If you turned the dish to another satellite you'd get foreign channels.

Note that this isn't a freesat receiver so won't have the freesat programme guide or auto channel line up so it's a basic receiver but it'll be ok.
